Of course
the silly and serious sides of it
are heart of the matter
in that
there’s no possible way
to fill every empty box
tie all loose ends
in a single lifetime

And so no doubt
the process will continue
in the world to come

Author's Note: Tentatively, the closing poem in Empty Boxes & Loose Ends. I was listening to the above song while writing the poem.
